HOW 1T WAS DONE.
History of the Deal and the Men
Who Were in Ii,

Mr.. Pat Calhoun tells the story OF the
scoop substantially as follows: He cams
to Savannah last summer in the interest
of Gen. Gordon during the latter's can.
vass for Governor. In the MORNING
NEWS ne read a dispatch to the effect that
some Of the Augusta brokers who were
long" on Central were Trying to boom 1t.
He thought the stock was good
Investment and thought that the
time was ripe TO buy il, as it could be
done under color of the brokers' boom.
The annual reports OF the company be
considered good shear" articles. lie went
TO New YORK and got his brother TO inter-
est otners In the stock.
Gen. Alexander was approached and
asked tor the use OF mis- pane. He re-
fused unless enough STOCK could
be- pledged TO elect him.
The amount was promised and the
buying began. J. G.. Calhoun
had just made a big thing in Richmond
Terminal, IL. B. Hollins, Adam Duteu-
ho or, Isaac r &c, railroad lawyer, the
Semans, OF New York, MIR, Dennyssn, a
Philadelphia capitalist, ana other North

the stock. 1t was then being "kicked
around IN the seventies" to use one OF
Mr.. j. q. Calhoun had q conference in
New York with Mr.. e. NJ. Green, OF Sa-
vannah, and in less than two weeks they
had bought 1000 shares. Enough was
bought below par to make the average
price which 1t cost the syndicate a very
reasonable one. When success was
assured Gen. Alexander consented to run.
The road Will not be run in the lnteresr OF
any one except the stockholders, Mr..
Calhoun stated.
John c. Calhoun said that so long as
he can influence the management of the

in speaking of the contest Gen. Alex
ander observed that be considered the old
boards great blunder was it's refusal TO
give his friends list of the stock holders.
That created sentiment in his favor and
brought him many shares that he would
not otherwise have obtained.
Then they played beautifully into our
hands by declaring q per cent. dlvi-
dend," he continued. 81 had told nv
friends in New York that Central ought
to pay s or 10 per cent. When the dividend
